Axis: Bold As Love by Jimi Hendrix
Apr 27 2024

Progressive, bit ultimately felt like a testing ground for later songs

Faith by George Michael
Apr 28 2024

Just a breathy George Michael going on at length about how he wants to have sex with everyone

Home Is Where The Music Is by Hugh Masekela
Apr 30 2024

Promising start, feels like appropriate dinner party background music. The kind where your guests leave thinking you're a bit of an ass.

Green Onions by Booker T. & The MG's
May 01 2024

Fun, but in an incidental kind of way. Good background music

Music for the Masses by Depeche Mode
May 03 2024

Articulate and intricate electronic music. Big sounds. Bit samey.

Gorillaz by Gorillaz
May 04 2024

Will come back to

Southern Rock Opera by Drive-By Truckers
May 05 2024

Never heard of the band before today. I miss yesterday

May 07 2024

Refreshing step away (mostly) from Best Of material, and cemented Brighton Rock among my favourite Queen tracks of all time

Being There by Wilco
May 09 2024

Stirring album that evokes the kind of melancholy that only country music can. Expands the genre to be accessible to those who've never owned a gun or a pick-up truck

The Blueprint by JAY Z
May 10 2024

Almost unlistenable. Renegade was a high point but really not that high

Blur by Blur
May 12 2024
Freak Out! by The Mothers Of Invention
May 13 2024

Loved. Fun mix of genres, fun orchestration. Just fun

All Mod Cons by The Jam
May 15 2024

Great, great, great. Fun basslines and boppy mod. Weller can't quite manage the slower numbers but it doesn't retract too much.

Life's Too Good by The Sugarcubes
May 16 2024

What the fuck was the point of all that?

Exile In Guyville by Liz Phair
May 19 2024

Fun preppy rock. Was not prepared for how filthy the lyrics are. Made for a very uncomfortable train journey

Hejira by Joni Mitchell
May 22 2024

Okay. Structureless and freeform if that's your thing. Isn't mine

Moon Safari by Air
May 25 2024

Lots of fun post-rock reminiscent of Mogwai and others. Will revisit several times.

Horses by Patti Smith
Jun 09 2024
Frank by Amy Winehouse
Jun 18 2024
Marcus Garvey by Burning Spear
Jun 19 2024

Not sure I like reggae now after that

Tusk by Fleetwood Mac
Jun 26 2024
Illinois by Sufjan Stevens
Jul 09 2024
